bush, hear a lot about florida, george w. bush wouldn't have been president without new hampshire, that's a state mitt romney owns a home, the president owning a large lead again. that's changed in the past month. registered voters said the direction of the country had improved but the place where that was most significant, new hampshire. in june there was a 20 point gap between wrong track, right track. that gap in this poll is just 7%. we're seeing that time and time again. now let's go to virginia. another important state. mitt romney loses ohio, mark, i am sure you agree with me, he has to win virginia. new suffolk university poll last night shows the race is much tighter than it has been. president obama only ahead of mitt romney by 2 percentage points. and fascinating there. how does all of this look, mark? >> look, it is right to not take any single poll, make a huge deal of it, but there are some state polls like that batch from nbc and the virginia poll, if you saw those in a vacuum, you'd say romney is in the game.

bush conspiracy theory of course was always that john kerry absolutely destroyed george w. bush in that debate when bush was supposedly wearing a listening device. so if he was wearing a listening device whoever was supposedly whispering in the president's ear was not whispering things that helped him. that's always the part i didn't understand. but the 2012 version of that theory now is that mitt romney cheated in the debate against president obama this week not by having somebody feed him the answers through an ear piece but rather by bringing the illegal crib sheet on to the debate stage with him. you see, previous debate rules have set out very clearly that, quote, no props, notes, charts, diagrams, or other writings or other tangible things may be brought into the debate by any candidate and yet have a look at this damning evidence. this is at the very beginning of the debate on wednesday night and as you'll be able to see clearly here what is that in your pocket? mr. romney very clearly pulls something from his right pocket and he pops it on to the podium in front of
